Wookey Hits a Gin Turn to Triple Up; Ghezelbash Survives

Level 14 : 2,000/4,000, 500 ante

Action folded around to Chris Wookey who moved all in late position for right around 30,000. He was called by Ali Ghezelbash before Jarrod Thatcher moved all in over the top. Action was back on Ghezelbash who called.

Chris Wookey: {A-Spades}{2-Spades}
Ali Ghezelbash: {Q-Hearts}{Q-Spades}
Jarrod Thatcher: {K-Clubs}{Q-Clubs}

The board ran out {2-Diamonds}{5-Hearts}{8-Diamonds}{2-Hearts}{4-Spades} though and Wookey made trip threes to earn a full triple up. On the other side of the action, Ghezelbash's queens held up against the king-queen of Thatcher and he earned a partial double up as well to around 145,000. Thatcher was left with about 90,000 after the hand.
